Worship Intercessor

Worship Intercessors
'Sacred Romancers'

Though we're all called to worship, worship intercessors are those who are tuned in to heaven's audio chambers. When their hearts ae rightly aligned, their spiritual antenna's hear heaven's rhythm pumping out of the throne room on behalf of God's people. Worship may sound to these intercessors as the adulation of praise, the tearful song of mercy's identification, victorious shouts, the drumbeat of warfare, the clapping of honor to the King of Kings or even the waltz of sacred romance.

Some worship intercessors will respond with musical instrument, others with songs. ( ps. 33:1-3) some with dancing, others with clapping ( see Ps.150:4, 47:1) some with bowing, others with raised hands ( Ps.95:6 141:2)

This intercessor's prayers often flow with singing, that can melt a hardened heart ( if in a group or singing over a person), this kind of singing can heal heart and set captives free.
-My friend Diane often operates in this! She often begins to pour out her heart in prayers that flow into powerful songs of deliverance, or sweet songs of God's love for the person she's praying for! She will often get 'songs' during our prayer times and will 'sing out' rather than 'pray out'!

Worship Intercessors release the cannons of faith against the walls of resistance. They carry spiritual artillery for breakthrough. The bible is full of stories that tell us of worship that went on before great battles or breakthrough – Paul and Silas in prison for one -King David – Jehoshaphat – and more!

In all these situations, three common threads intertwine to form a cord for hauling in the breakthrough: sacrifice – sanctification and surrender. Worship Intercession that ushers in God's presence must have all three, and cultivating those character traits takes time. Remember, spiritual Growth is a process.

Pitfalls of Worship Intercessors

-fearing the response of others more than God's call to responding
-refusing to move out in your gift because of fear of comparison
-succumbing to rejection when the worship is not honored as a form of intercession
-believing that only those with a perfect pitch are anointed
-Lacking discernment in timing
-trying to set the stage with words, rather than moving out into the gift
-being unteachable and overstepping the boundaries of others
-thinking that song is only way to pray and losing the balance: prayer and song
-using the gift to be recognized for your singing

Are you a Worship Intercessor?

-Do you often sing your prayers or use a musical instrument to commune with the Lord?
-Do you give either all or just a few bars of a song, in response to prayerfully?
-Does praising the Lord occupy must of your prayer time?
-Does God give youa song to sing over person, situation, or land?
-Do you often wake up with a song on your heart?
-When the group is asked is anyone has a song, can you usually say 'yes'?

Worship intercessors should guard their heart to ensure that the your desire to worship do not overshadow His presence – in other words, don't put the gift before the Giver. Be faithful to how God is using YOU to pray
